In 2008, I moved to San Francisco for one reason:
Learn how these 20-year-olds were building $1B companies
Little did I know, they looked at business in a completely different way.
I learned a TON.
Fast forward to today, and I'm 44 years old, living a life I could've only dreamed about.
I’ve invested in over 125 tech startups, bought 3 software companies, built and exited 3 companies, and I own one of the largest coaching organizations for software CEOs.
But this wouldn't have happened if I hadn't been exposed to how these CEOs operated.
I recently shared this journey at the 'All In Freedom Conference' in Dallas and would love to share it with you too.

Loved every second of my watch to the very end. I could really use your help Dan, I’m 42 and disabled since 2007, still own a small business with $480K in savings. Already have a share in a rental property. But I'd still love to grow my investments ahead of my retirement. Can you help me or mentor me?

Hit 200k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started with 14k in last 4months of 2023

Great contents Dan... Here are my take aways. 👉 OUTPUT = Time X Leverage. 👉 Don't sell your business when you hit complexity ceiling. 👉 Anyone that you bring into your business is the CEO of the job they are handling 👉 Be a transformational leader not a transactional leader. And lastly... 👉 Deligate the outcome, not the task. I will be implementing right away. Thank you.

I love the statement: "We build the people, the people build business." <3 Thanks a lot and I will grind all your videos <3

My favorite thing about this guy is that he actually likes people. I never want to absorb advice that disrespects the people that are trying to do a good job.
